Miss Charlotte Behrens, whom belongs
the credit Of dramailzlpg the story, ia q
charming little lady, with much dramatic
as well MS literary ability. The support was
good. Mrs. Isabella Waldron and Mr..
Frank Ambrose being especially worthy OF
mention. The scenic accessories to the

The crowd at the Biiou last night made
the little theatre look thoroughly familiar,
Notwithstanding tho improvements that
have been made. Mr.. Edwin f.. Mayo

these entertainments have already won.
AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Manager Haynes OF the Biiou prays for
rain every night now, so he can show the

The opportunity offered by the National
